As Seen On TV

Death is viewed as a strange

Necessary means to an end

Murder has no consequence

Save solving someone’s problem

No investigation, no clean-up

No punishment, no harm, no foul

Just bang bang bang, bang bang, with

Ridiculously impossible accuracy

When the main characters shoot

Missing the broad side of a barn

When the disposable characters do





As far as the plot goes

Death disappears like a fart in an

Elevator with two people there

Everyone knows who did it

No one mentions anything

Manifesting detachment

From a one-dimensional view

Whilst living in a “4D” world




The product that is sold

As seen on TV is that

Not only is murder OK

It is easy to get away with

No conscious awareness

No repercussions

No remorse……meanwhile




Some people somewhere

Have to do the dirty work

On the set of real “reality”

Bring the barely alive to the hospital

Have coroners freeze the evidence

Families weeping burying their dead

Plotting revenge or learning to forgive

Those are the parts never shown


“You see it in their faces
The saddness in their tears
The desperation and the anger
Madness and the fear

No hope, no life, just pain and fear”

“Childhood’s End”

– Iron Maiden





Hollywood is not to blame

It is the audience’s fault

Hungering for those detached solutions

With the increasing likelihood

Since there are so many

Daily murders to solve

The solution to cold cases

Are reaching absolute zero

Distancing themselves from judgment

Save from a soar neck by constantly

Looking over their shoulder
